On Wednesday, Sharif and Sara’s stepmother Beinash Batool were found guilty of her murder and her uncle Faisal Malik was convicted of causing or allowing her death.Following the guilty verdicts, the case will raise questions raised about whether the tragedy could have been prevented. Sharif had been controlling towards two other Polish ex-girlfriends, who alleged he had stopped them from leaving and taken their passports, jurors heard.
Within two years of getting Sara back, Batool was confiding in her sister that Sharif “beat the crap” out of his daughter. Chloe Redwin, who moved into the upstairs flat in November 2022, said she heard a smack and scream followed by “go to your room”. However, teachers saw a different side to Batool when she was caught swearing at children at the school gates.
